Pray for all people in #Brussels.
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-35870700Belgian Prime Minister Charles Michel told a press conference "scores" of people had been killed or injured in the attacks at the airport and Maelbeek metro station.The Belgian government has not confirmed casualty numbers. Brussels transport officials said 15 died at Maelbeek and the Belgian health minister said 11 were killed at the airport.
The Belgian federal prosecutor said it was "probably a suicide bomber" who struck the airport.
The attacks come four days after Salah Abdeslam, a key suspect in the Paris attacks, was captured in Brussels.
"These are appalling and savage terrorist attacks and I've just spoken to the prime minister of Belgium to give our sympathies and our condolences to the Belgian people," Mr Cameron said.
"They could just as well be attacks in Britain or in France or Germany, or elsewhere in Europe and we need to stand together against these appalling terrorists and make sure they can never win."
He said the UK faced a "very real terror threat", and the UK authorities were continuing to review information coming in - and would raise the terror threat level if there was information of a direct threat.
The UK terror threat level has been at "severe" since August 2014, meaning an attack is highly likely.
